Ok, good catch.
Is the switch properly polled and is the status change properly reported 
upstream?
If yes, you might want to check (add printk to rfkill code) if the LED
is properly triggered.

No it doesn't. This still introduces a race.

I'm wondering who causes this deadlock. "registered" should be false if
we are called back from rfkill_initialize, so it should return early before
the lock.
